Subject: RE: BS: More stupid jerkwad stuff to get upset a From: DMcG Date: 30 Sep 11 - 09:05 AM Bad libraries. The local library near where we have just moved has lots of Mills and Boon, celeb autobiographies, chic-lit and so on, but no 'classics'. Whether that means Jane Austin, Dostoyevsky, Dickens or Chaucer to you matters not - they don't have it. Not even Shakespeare! There's probably no book in there published more than, oh, twenty years ago. But a *good* library is something else. |

Subject: RE: BS: More stupid jerkwad stuff to get upset a From: Gurney Date: 30 Sep 11 - 02:40 AM The staples in Playboy. Any TV programme with '-Got Talent!' in the title. Tv programmes the use bad grammar in the title. Self-satisfied TV personalities like Simon Cowell. Most Soaps. Some soaps, the ones that make me itch. Women who bathe in perfume, then sit next to me at mealtime. Men who don't use deodorant, work hard, and then sit next to me at mealtime. People who persist in asking questions.... Guitar strings that break. |
Subject: RE: BS: More stupid jerkwad stuff to get upset a From: Little Hawk Date: 29 Sep 11 - 11:49 PM Ye Gods! Now that is something worth getting upset about! Unbelievable. The people responsible for it should be arrested and charged with high treason. If something is not done about this corrupt dictatorship of the monied elite soon, I think the USA is perhaps on its way to a full-scale revolution...when the have-nots finally can't take it anymore. |
Subject: RE: BS: More stupid jerkwad stuff to get upset a From: Donuel Date: 29 Sep 11 - 11:42 PM The Bush Administration in lame duck session passed a law that required the US Post office to pay in full for all Employees, including employees that have not even been born yet for the next 75 years.... and pay it all to the Treasury in 10 years. ( It was revised from 5 to 10 years) This has never been done to any agency or business in history. Why? So that Billionaires could take over parts of the post office, skimn 18% off the top over 3 years for profit and go bankrupt. The hostile take over should net Billionaire investors five times their investment and for some make over a trillion dollars. The current workers would of course lose their pension, 30% of jobs and cost the country more money and dreadful or suspended service. |
Subject: RE: BS: More stupid jerkwad stuff to get upset a From: Joe_F Date: 29 Sep 11 - 08:46 PM Esprit d'escalier. As to "faster than the speed of light", it seems that few people these days are bothered by overlaps or gaps in their diction. Try to convince anyone that you count the people, not count the number of people. Or that temperatures are high & low, not hot & cold. |

Subject: RE: BS: More stupid jerkwad stuff to get upset a From: Mrrzy Date: 29 Sep 11 - 11:19 AM Man, I just had a great post evaporate. It started about how this is such a great thread name for the thread name game - it inevitably heads up a list... But under MSJSTGUA I added: The US public school system. *sigh*. Unpopped popcorn in the microwave bag that would have burned had it been in a nanosecond longer. The phrase "faster than the speed of light." If I pass someone, I'm faster than THEM. The phrase is, Faster Than Light. And I had some other witty commentary... which has passed through the sieve that is what used to be my brain. |

Subject: RE: BS: More stupid jerkwad stuff to get upset a From: GUEST,leeneia Date: 29 Sep 11 - 09:18 AM Right, Little Hawk. I mentioned that I had just visited the Canadian Rockies. We were in spectacular part - Jasper, Banff and Yoho National Parks, where rocks as old as Precambrian have been thrust sideways and uplifted to form incredible mountains. I came home convinced that I could go on the internet and find explanations for this based on plate tectonics, a science now about 50 years old. But could I? No-o-o-o. Believe it or not, the Canadian Geologic Survey offers the geologic map of Canada, but it doesn't have the stratigraphic column on it. This is like publishing a map and leaving the numbers off the highways. |

Subject: RE: BS: More stupid jerkwad stuff to get upset a From: Little Hawk Date: 28 Sep 11 - 12:57 PM crazy little woman - The reason I started this thread wsa to make fun of a similarly moronic thread that "Guest, josepp" started where he was pointlessly bitching about what a stupid jerkwad sport NFL football is. I thought his thread deserved to be made fun of, so I started this thread (tongue-in-cheek) to allow people to pointlessly bitch about not just NFL football...but absolutely EVERYTHING! ;-) All in fun, you see. And people have responded heroically. Whether josepp will take away anything useful from this bit of satire is debatable, but it has been fun. |

You know, the poem that goes: This is the dog that worried the cat that killed the rat That ate the malt that lay in house that Jack built etc Since then I've thought that the rap scene has the mentality of a four-year-old. |

Subject: RE: BS: More stupid jerkwad stuff to get upset a From: GUEST,saulgoldie Date: 27 Sep 11 - 11:16 AM Radio traffic reports, not just at rush hour, but at all times of the day.

Oh, and the sound of any of a number of yard machines that always seem to be operating when I am trying to relax. And they seem to be at some pitch that is especially annoying, roughly akin to fingernails on a chalkboard. Oh, wait. Am I taking this thread too seriously? Sorry. Thanks for listening. Saul |
